HALIBABICA'S PROFILE

Traverse through ye thick haze in search of yon inner sanctum with ye stout oke club at the ready for unseen dangers most foul.

As I was walking a alogng, I found a magical battle axe embedded in the ground. When I picked it up, it immediately pointed south like a backwards compass. Unfortunately for me, the axe had to swing through my head in order to accomplish this feat.

I dropped my soiled Bowser plush doll.

I am aware.

My problem with Confuse is that a lot of times there's no way to heal it so you just have to sit there and slog it out. Or your one character that knows the confusion heal spell gets confused (big deal, they're a mage), but while they're confused your fighter ALSO gets confused and then while he's busy slaughtering your party your other members get confused too. Or just die. Confusion always seems to result in unstoppable death in most of the games I've played.

I once made a mini-boss that had a move that could Confuse the whole party...he was really tough. He only stopped using the move when he was below half his health, so it was like a race to beat him up before he confused everybody. But, then again, I had an item that cures confusion and a character with a spell that can, too, so unless you're really unlucky, on average just 2/4 heroes would be confused and the other two could fix it instantly.

The key to beating confusion, and most status problems for that matter (besides luck), is keeping them under control. Don't let things get out of hand, no matter how insignificant it might seem at the moment.

Eh, I supported the idea, so I might as well! Count me in, I'll try to do all five of them.

As for the "popular vs. unheard of" choice selections, I think it's a good idea that we started with some stuff that's a little better known. We'll see how it goes this time, and change things for next time if we have to.
